Sk8n Reefer Posted March 2, 2015 Author Share Posted March 2, 2015 Your tank just gets better and better! Do you have any circulation pumps or just a return pump?Thanks a lot c-bskt! I am stoked on the rescape for sure. I am running an upgraded pump- Sicce 1.5 and two spin streams. Now that the Birdsnest is gone the flow is moving around much better. I probably would add a powerhead pointing towards the back on a timer -but not chancing it with the Nuvo. I think he is using just one return pump. AmazingThanks Maniu! You are correct just one pump?

teenyreef Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Alright here's some shots of the new additions- super stoked ! Dragon scale- always liked this coral geen into purple and the "scales" look cool Blue Acro- excellent color- hope I can keep it ! Aussie Acro - not sure of the name. It's a purple/maroonish with blue tips- really different looking Acro and finally a vivid green Acro tenuis Here's the Birdsnest mini colony doing well - he'll be like big daddy in no time Benny found himself a new home under my pocillopora in a hole in the rock Bluish sponge was living under my green cap FTS 3-1-15 spent about 6 hrs on this - took almost everything out except the right side. Moved my green cap into the center and place more pieces towards the top. Really liking how this came out- lots of flow around now. Totally different feel than before- many levels all tucked in. Moved my pink stylo up top too- hopefully it will like it's place- looks good up there. Still got 3 frags in the rack and 2 in the sand- need a few more peices of rock next weekend to find em all a home Just posted ck em out! Love the new scape! I can't wait to see what that blue acro does in your tank Link to comment

Good catch ! Looks like it to me. Gotta luv a macro lens- I've been using Aiptasia X with some success but that bugger was hiding under my cap- I'll zap it tomorrow ! I have had 2 peppermint shrimps not make it past a day or two- wish I could keep one to eat the aptasia Link to comment

Unless you just toss them in without acclimation. Lol you can say it I have done that b4 Link to comment
Maniu Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 I have one request tho. If those green shrooms get out of control. Sign me up for a few. They would be perfect for my pest tank. Link to comment
NanoFever Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Dude looking awesome. Love that dragon scale, Unique! Link to comment
TheKleinReef Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Rescape looks amazing! Love that small valley running down the left/middle. It adds a very unique touch to the tank, making the tank look much bigger. Can't wait to see those SPS mature! Link to comment

One molted and never came out and the other hung out for about 2 days then it's gone. Maybe my Emerald or cleaner took em out??? The one was chilling with the cleaner just fine during the day.........night times a killer? I have one request tho. If those green shrooms get out of control. Sign me up for a few. They would be perfect for my pest tank. They are a pain....their very aggressive and sting the sps ?Dude looking awesome. Love that dragon scale, Unique! Thanks! Yes it's a beautiful coral ! Hope it takes off Rescape looks amazing! Love that small valley running down the left/middle. It adds a very unique touch to the tank, making the tank look much bigger.

It's hard to believe emerald or CS would go after peppers. I am not saying it can't, I just never seen it. Hell, I never even heard about such a occurrence. You might have some evil hiding between rocks. Lol During molt they are most venerable. As to shrooms...... I don't care if they are aggressive. If they become a problem, let me know. I have cleaned up my pest tank and want to keep some rare Eviota gobies in it. No LPS or SPS. Just clean bicolor theme of softies and shrooms. I need green and blue/purple shrooms, zoas, gorgs and softies . I fragged some gorgs and found some green zoas in my other tank. But still need more blue and green. Link to comment

Sk8n Reefer Posted March 3, 2015 Author Share Posted March 3, 2015 Yup, Triumph Explorer 1200. Great bike. But I miss my vintage 1973 Beemer. Very nice- I am all about the vintage - my daily rider is a 1960 Cushman scooter with an 18horse- for the small frame it is a monster ......where's that pic taken at? That bike is sweet looking though- must be a joy to ride? New scaping looks great! Barely even miss the big momma birds nest! Thanks - I know I am much happier with the scape - just feels open Link to comment
Maniu Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 Colorado. Cushman? Wown sweet. Those are hard to come by in decent shape. We have some serious winter this year. So no wheeleeez. Besides my crappy dealer didnt install heated grips and seat. Option I paid for. 1200 is huge bike. I kind of liked the urban size and feel of BMW 60/5. Got pics of that Cushman?
